Ella Fitzgerald — I Wish I Were in Love Again

You don't know that I felt good When we up and parted You don't know I knocked on wood Gladly broken-hearted Worrying is through I sleep all night Appetite and health restored You don't know how much I'm bored The sleepless nights, the daily fights The quick toboggan when you reach the heights I miss the kisses, and I miss the bites I wish I were in love again The broken dates, the endless waits The lovely loving, and the hateful hates The conversations with the flying plates I wish I were in love again No more pain, no more strain Now I'm sane, but I would rather be gaga The pulled out fur of cat and cur The fine mismating of a him and her I've learned my lesson, but I wish I were In love again The furtive sigh, the blackened eye The words: "I love you, 'til the day I die? The self deception that believes the lie I wish I were in love again When love congeals it soon reveals The faint aroma of performing seals The double-crossing of a pair of heels I wish I were in love again No more care, no despair I'm all there now, but I'd rather be punch-drunk Believe me sir, I much prefer The classic battle of a him and her I don't like quiet, and I wish I were In love again
